It's have good condation for our project in the futher. and I want to known How many rock art sites in our project inclued? it may be easier to receive funding for a rock art project if the rock art is in danger of being damaged or threatened by development. Most of rock art sites being faced damaged or threatened. When I hear from you - with your suggestions, I will begin contacting granting agencies. My suggestion is we will be work for recording project, It's improtant thing that it's will be set up compute standar for the rock art site of china, meanwhile our project would be attened by more people and government who will be care about our project, so it will be more better to improve our datebase. Your map seems to show many sites in the northwest (western China and Inner Mongolia) and the south. Have the sites on the map been recorded? It's only some of them have been put it. But you know We still not try to find complete recording in these sites Because The member of rock art sites are more than we know. Also, are other archaeological sites recorded in a way that they can be compared with rock art site locations? Yes, We have some of recorded at past time, many rock art research have been done many work for the rock art survey. Have you done any on the ground surveys for rock art sites?
